Dead Pen Challenge: Biro Cutlery Hack

The results for ReadyMade's MacGYVER: Dead Pen Edition competition are in, and they demonstrate the breadth of imagination that goes into hacking and repurposing a simple object.

Readers have turned old Bics into lawn spikers, pocket vases, jewelry and a tool rack. The winner, though was the splendid Dead Pen Cutlery, by Jaspal Marwah and Sarah Hunt from Vancouver. Instructions: 1) Buy cutlery at garage sale. 2) Snap off the handles. 3) Hot-glue the business end into an old pen carcass. That's it. Simple, but very cool looking.

Head over to ReadyMade to dee the runners up, and if you feel up to it, entering the next competition: Umbrellas.
